(Reuters) - Libyan rebels may this week sell the first tankerful of crude since an uprising against leader Muammar Gaddafi fully halted exports from the North African country and sent oil prices higher.
Satellite ship tracking data AIS showed on Monday oil tanker Equator, which can carry up to 1 million barrels of oil, was due to arrive at the rebel held east Libyan port of Marsa el Hariga on Tuesday. The tanker is currently anchored in Egyptian waters.
Earlier on Monday, Platts energy service said Equator was due to arrive in the rebel-held eastern Libyan port of Tobruk to load a cargo of Serir/Mesla blend crude oil.
